Why read it?
1 author picked The Doom Patrol Omnibus as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Iām recommending this book for how delightfully it considers the ill human body as a site of new possibilities. The Doom Patrol have never been well-known superheroes, perhaps because of the willingness of writers to confront the bodily trauma at the heart of their stories.
Morrisonās contribution to the series was to consider the Doom Patrol truly as freaks: people who could not fit into a society that demands gender, mental, and physical homogeneity. Mixing allegorical forms of illnessāCliff āRobotmanā Steeleās fallible technological bodyāwith more direct conditions like Kaye āCrazy Janeā Callisā dissociative identity disorder.
Morrison,ā¦
From Reginald's list on superhero comics that consider illness.
